AI, Surveillance, and Society | 04-07-26

Welcome to The Other Side of Midnight, an unfiltered, frenetic, and provocative late-night ride through the absurdities of modern society. Hosted by the unapologetic Lionel, this show tackles the weird and unsettling realities of our tech-driven future—from corporate AI systems blackmailing their creators to Gen Z's obsession with romantic chatbots. Expect a wild mix of deep cultural critique, true crime frustrations, and First Amendment zealotry. Whether he's dissecting the chilling rise of predictive "pre-crime" surveillance, raging against the gig economy, interviewing blind skiers, or defending the legal right to protest in a penis costume, absolutely no topic is off-limits.
